Pinkham's Vegetable Tom- r pound, yet some women no not realize > t hat all that is claimed for it is abso- . lutely true. " If all suffering women could be made a ? Vo believe that Mrs. Pinkhain can do fj all she says she can, their suffering would be at an end, for they would at once profit by her advice and be d cured. d ? There is no more puzzling thing than ^ | that women will suffer great pain month after month when every woman knows of some woman whom Mrs. tl Pinkham has helped, as the letters " from grateful women are constantly J, ( being published at their own request. p , The same derangements which make 11 painful or irregular periods with a dull backaches and headaches, and dragging-down sensations, presently ? develop into those serious inilamtna- } 1 tions of the feminine organs which completely wreck health. * Mrs. Pinkham invites women to write freely nnd confidentially to her ' about their health and get the benefit r of her great experience with the sufferings of women. No living person t can advise ,-ou so well. No remedy in the world lias the magnificent record ^ of Lydia K. Pinkham's vegetable Com- ^ * jiouml for absolute cures of female i ills.
